See Chad & Dave's Movie Podcast on The Godfather

To combat boredom, Upper School teachers Dave Holte and Chad Rigsby are watching a movie a week and discussing it online.  Check out their third movie podcast discussing The Godfather on the SGS YouTube Channel with administrator guests Jamie Tender and Francesca Mulazzi. 

This week’s “Movie of the Week” is a contemporary one.  Taika Waititi’s JoJo Rabbit tells the story of Jojo, a German boy whose imaginary best friend is Hitler.  Jojo is presented with a struggle of conscience when he discovers a Jewish girl hiding in his attic.  The movie is rated PG-13, hilarious and sad, but is also justifiably controversial for its representations of the Holocaust.  It was nominated for six Academy Awards, including Best Picture.

This week’s Guest Stars are all lined but up, but if you’re interested in joining Dave and Chad for future panels, shoot an email to david.holte@sgs.org or chad.rigsby@sgs.org.  They will also have a “mailbag,” so send them questions or conversation pieces about the film or related topics ahead of time and they’ll try to answer them.  Or if you’re just interested in watching a great movie, you can check out JoJo Rabbit in the next few days and enjoy their conversation.  You can also find previous podcasts, about Jaws, In the Heat of the Night, and The Godfather on the SGS YouTube Channel.
